0005020: Hunter looping on Store item in bin, Pickup Equipment, rinse/repeat

Notes
(0019362) Logical2u (manager) 2012-01-12 14:52	Is the hunter also part of the military?

(0019365) flamoot (reporter) 2012-01-12 16:39	He's a marksdwarf and I assumed that would be -better- although if he was melee and hunting I could imagine a problem where he kept switching weapons. Well, I'll un-enlist him. I guess this is a dupe, eh? Thank you! Something funny happened to him at least 7th Galena, 173, Late Summer Iton Duthnurkadol, Hunter: No Job (Chained) Yay! The threw the looping fuck in jail What did he do, other than non-commitally fondle all the crossbows and quivers? Violation of Production Order. Yeah I saw a mandate that'd made it to bright red and I didn't check what it was for. So they picked that silly broken hunter as the responsible party and now he's got 46 days to think about things. Good

(0019367) Logical2u (manager) 2012-01-12 17:05	flamoot, although I appreciate your update to the report, the mandate punishment is entirely unrelated, and your second note was unnecessary. This is definitely related or duplicate to one of the bugs regarding military and hunter equipment problems although perhaps not perfectly identical. Try following the suggestions for fixing the bug in 0004062 (specifically undrafting/un-uniforming your hunter, or un-huntering your marksdwarf) and report back, or upload your save to the DFFD.

My second note was of course to let you know it'll be a few hours until I can tell if that helped. Cheers (Oh heck, let me go ahead and characteristically say more. I'll let you see the notes I can find about that hunter while I was wondering what was wrong and it might provide more information on whether or not this is a dupe One ~~~ Iton, Hunter, is doing Pickup Equipment. His only labour is Hunting. Enabling all Healthcare. He has a rhinoceros bone crossbow but no quiver. Sigh -- let's toggle his hunting and see if he'll pick both up after Two ~~~ Oh that hunter I disabled at it was doing pickup equipment for some reason when his only labours were healthcare. What's he picking up, a scalpel? I turned hunting back on and I'll follow him by hand (I added a suggestion for a 'follow dwarf' auto-center mode because it would obviate the need) He just put away his quiver for some reason and now he's storing a copper shield. ... and now he's going to store his trousers. He's taken them off already and is carrying them, pantsless, through the fort. So this is how my hunters have been behaving. Three [a hopeful moment] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ooh! That Hunter whose hunting I cycled and, last time we checked, took his pants off and went to stash them somewhere, has equipped a quiver and -filled- it with bolts, good! Finally. He's doing "pickup equipment". I bet he's picking up a crossbow! Four ~~~~ Iton the only titled Hunter is storing item in bin, a clear glass vial for some reason Five ~~~~ Back to Iton Pickup Equipment Come on, man... hunt He no longer -has- that quiver full of bolts, meaning he ditched it when I wasn't looking. THEN HOW WILL HE HUNT?! Oh man, what's wrong with my hunters this game Six ~~~ Iton the Hunter has exchanged his bolt-filled quiver for a new empty one. He is still picking up equipment and still has no crossbow. God Seven [growing unease] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now he's equipped a -bow- in his left hand but he's -hauling- his quiver to store item in bin. Is he just looping this way? -What- is wrong with my hunters?! Unpause Iton got rid of his bow -and- his quiver, -again-, and is doing Pickup Equipment, -again-. Something is plain wrong Eight [a rare glimpse of accurate intuition] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Note Iton was enlisted. []Maybe this is why[] he's cycling about his equipment when set to Inactive. Enlisted, he's a Marksdwarf, which makes sense since he came as a hunter. But is he in a marksdwarf squad? Yes. Then in my opinion he should be -more- likely to have the gear to hunt with, as an enlisted marksdwarf. If his hunting gear was conflicting with melee gear he was supposed to have I'd have a clue. But, nope Nine ~~~~ Guess what Iton the Hunter is hauling a troll fur quiver to a bin. He seems to spend his whole life moving quivers and bows around between stockpiles. Like he can't settle on one or basically otherwise does not know what to do. How frustrating. But for now I have lots of tallow so there's spare time to figure out what's wrong with my hunters and try to get some other dwarves to do it, watch them closely, see if they do the same thing as Iton. It's a bug in my embark if they do, I'm sure of it, not with my fort, because we're drowning in bolts and arrows and have more than plenty of crossbows. Ten ~~~ Damn it, I saw this Iton hunter carrying -tons- of ammo before but he left it all somewhere. What's wrong with him? He has no labours other than all Hunting/Related and all Healthcare. -What- is the problem Eleven [wow, I waited a long time to bug-rep this guy] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Iton the Malfunctioning Hunter is -still- -forever- storing item in bin. Bugrepped the bastard The end ~~~~~~~ Thanks ilu, flamoot)
